I am having a custom 'tableview' implementation. I am implementing a feature which I want to animate by showing the "drop pin" effect. This effect is shown in the popular Google Maps app.
how do I mimic this animation?
It doesn't seem like much of an effect -- it's really just an image of a pin moving from the top of the screen to someplace in the middle. A basic UIView animation with an appropriate animation curve would probably do it. Is there something in particular you're having trouble with?
